abstract="We studied the incidence of cervical and trochanteric hip fractures in Stockholm, Sweden from 1972 through 1981. The material, selected from a computerized medical information register, consisted of 11 812 cervical fractures and 8094 trochanteric fractures. The incidence did not change in the age group 50-74 years. In males 75 years of age and older, the incidence of both fracture types caused by moderate trauma increased annually by 5-6 per cent. In females 75 years and older, the incidence of trochanteric fractures caused by moderate trauma increased annually by 6 per cent, whereas the incidence of cervical fractures increased only marginally.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
